Urban Outfitters set for September opening as planning to be lodged at former Debenhams site

Urban Outfitters will operate out of 101 St Patrick’s Street, which has been empty since the 2019 closure of womens-wear store Dorothy Perkins-Evans

The commercial property at 101 Patrick Street, Cork City, currently under renovation and due to reopen as Urban Outfitters.

Urban Outfitters, the go-to store for fashion-forward shoppers, is set to open in Cork City in September, in a boost to the mixed fortunes of the city’s main street.

Separately, movement is afoot at Debenhams, with a planning application due to be lodged shortly for the redevelopment and reuse of the former Roches Stores at 12-17 St Patrick’s Street.
